Any suggestions of what to get a 9 yr old girl please?
Merry Gryfmas, 22 December, 2008 at 21:02

I'm stuck! We were going to get her a guitar from us but her Godfather is getting that. Then I thought maybe a SIM card for a mobile but at 9 she just seems too young to have a mobile. My other idea...
